A private buyer has acquired the freehold of a townhouse hotel in South Kensington from administrators Quantuma for an undisclosed price.
The Cranley Hotel provides 39 bedrooms across three period terraced buildings and also features a lounge, restaurant and a breakfast room. The property sold for “significantly” above the guide price.
Kitty Snaydon, from Savills’ hotel capital markets team, which acted on behalf of the administrators on the sale, said: “Completing this hotel transaction in the first few weeks of 2026 marks a strong start to the year for the London hotel investment market.
“We anticipate more stock coming to market over the coming months as confidence continues to build, and investor appetite for high quality hotel assets in prime Central London locations remains robust. The Cranley Hotel also offers strong value‑add potential, providing buyers with multiple opportunities to enhance the asset and further unlock its long term investment appeal.”
